Review of Austin, Texas


Hot HOt HOT
Star Rating - 8/2/2009
Not sure what to say about the weather its usually hot but this year we had weeks and weeks of 100+ degree weather and not a single drop of rain. I leave work at around 5:30 and the temperature would still show 106- 110 degrees... miserable. Weekends you can't really take the kids outdoors, playground to hot to slide climb etc.. the pool sounds like a good idea anytime unless you are concerned about skin cancer which i am so i find myself indoors most of the time or having to pay for indoor activities, movies, inflatable playground, zoo(terrible one which is amazing to me) winters are not to cold a bit of ice 2 or 3 times and thats it.
